Immunoglobulin kappa chain receptor editing in systemic lupus erythematosus. [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1998
To determine whether receptor editing of Vkappa genes was involved in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), the usage of Vkappa and Jkappa gene elements from individual peripheral CD19(+) B cells obtained from a patient with untreated SLE was examined.

Significant differences in physicochemical properties of human immunoglobulin kappa and lambda CDR3 regions

Frontiers in Immunology, 2016
Antibody variable regions are composed of a heavy and a light chain and in humans there are two light chain isotypes: kappa and lambda. Despite their importance in receptor editing, the light chain is often overlooked in the antibody literature, with the

RAGs and Regulation of Autoantibodies [PDF]

, 2004
Autoreactive antibodies are etiologic agents in a number of autoimmune diseases. Like all other antibodies these antibodies are produced in developing B cells by V(D)J recombination in the bone marrow.

Immunoglobulin kappa chain as an immunologic biomarker of prognosis and chemotherapy response in solid tumors [PDF]

OncoImmunology, 2012
Infiltration of plasma cells is associated with better prognosis in breast, lung and colon cancer. Immunoglobulin κ chain (IGKC) is now available as a single, robust immune marker predicting metastasis-free survival and response to chemotherapy. This will facilitate a deeper understanding of the role of the humoral immune system in cancer development.

First third-generation CAR T cell application targeting CD19 for the treatment of systemic IgM AL amyloidosis with underlying marginal zone lymphoma

Biomarker Research, 2023
Light chain amyloidosis (AL) is a rare disease caused by the generalized deposition of misfolded free light chains. Patients with immunoglobulin M gammopathy (IgM) and indolent B-cell lymphoma such as marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) may in some instances ...
